JavaScript: Generate an array, containing the Fibonacci sequence, up until the nth term

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-237 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to generate an array containing the Fibonacci sequence, up to the nth term.

  • Use Array.from() to create an empty array of the specific length, initializing the first two values (0 and 1).
  • Use Array.prototype.reduce() and Array.prototype.concat() to add values into the array, using the sum of the last two values, except for the first two.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

// Define a function 'fibonacci' to generate Fibonacci sequence up to the specified length
const fibonacci = n =>
  Array.from({ length: n }).reduce((acc, val, i) => 
    acc.concat(i > 1 ? acc[i - 1] + acc[i - 2] : i), []); // Generate Fibonacci sequence

// Test the 'fibonacci' function with different lengths
console.log(fibonacci(2)); // Output: [0, 1]
console.log(fibonacci(3)); // Output: [0, 1, 1]
console.log(fibonacci(6)); // Output: [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5]

Output:

[0,1]
[0,1,1]
[0,1,1,2,3,5]
